Hardy Amies
In 2010, Malcolm was offered the position of Designer at the eponymous British fashion brand, Hardy Amies on Savile Row, presenting her first Salon show at London Fashion Week AW11. Malcolm drew on the period of Sir Edwin Hardy’s life when he was a prominent figure on the European society circuit in the 1930s:

The label is now firmly back on the fashion map with a feel of Tom Ford about it, but with an English twist. These are leisure clothes in luxury fabrics such as the structured and unstructured blazers in Prince of Wales and windowpane check and midnight blue tuxedos with silk crêpe-de-chine shirts.
